From shafting and supports, to round and square rail guides, linear motion systems to pillow blocks, Thomson demonstrates how our products excel as the best solution in a wide array of industrial applications.

True Planetary Gearheads

Thomson Micron® planetary gearheads are used on high precision motion control applications which require a high torque to volume ratio, high torsional stiffness, and low backlash. All of our gearheads are self-lubricating and have high radial load capacity for any given size. The ability to match inertias with our large variety of ratios, provide to keep our customers stable and controlled servo systems.

John Pieri, Thomson Brake/Clutch Product Line Manager, describes
friction and wrap spring clutches and their various applications as
industry solutions. He covers how and when to apply friction clutches in
certain situations while wrap spring clutches in others. Also included
in the discussion is a description of gearheads and their functionality
in application design.
